I'm in PA, but school is back in session in Texas. Crazy. It's too hot for kids to be trudging with backpacks, sweating football practice, and doing homework instead of diving into a pool.
Don't get me wrong - I believe in education. BUT - not until after Labor Day. Summer is summer is summer. August is for total ennui, hanging poolside, floating, and complaining about the heat.
Whew! (kudos to all teachers - good luck with this wacky Texas Educational system)
Hi Joanne - our kids get their results today ... but don't go back until September. We all deal with the oddities of life don't we ... I know we had hot days, but also cold ones when we were expected to swim - I didn't enjoy it!! Cheers Hilary
